Create a Single User Account

To participate in a TeamForge site, a person must have a user account on that site. TeamForge administrators can create these user accounts. This topic applies to sites with no LDAP authentication.

If your TeamForge site uses LDAP authentication, TeamForge administrators cannot create new user accounts. On a site with LDAP authentication, each user must log into TeamForge using his or her LDAP credentials.

On sites with LDAP/SAML/SAML+LDAP integrations, site administrators can designate select users that do not have a SAML or LDAP account as local users. Local users can log on to TeamForge using just the TeamForge credentials while bypassing the SAML/LDAP/SAML+LDAP authentication realms. A local user can also change and reset his password. For more information, see ALLOW LOCAL USER.

From the TIME ZONE drop-down list, select the preferred time zone for the user.

Important: Selecting the time zone overrides the default time zone set by the site options token, DISPLAY_TIMEZONE. It reflects in all the email notifications and TeamForge pages excluding integrated application pages.

Choose the user’s TeamForge LICENSE TYPE.

You can assign users a combination of multiple license types such as ALM and DevOps.

Choose a user type. You can choose only one user type for each user.

SITE ADMIN: Administrators have unlimited access to all the data in TeamForge.

RESTRICTED USER: Restricted users can only access projects of which they are members.

Important: If you do not select RESTRICTED USER, the user will be unrestricted and able to access all projects that have not been made private by a project administrator.
